  1. I would've assumed anyone else was joking but this is Kyle so you never know.
  2. You're worried about Javy dragging the team out of playoff contention but you're cool with Lake opening the season as the starting LF?
  3. Like Kap even knows what a cutter is
  4. It's just crazy to think guys have exactly one swing they employ for every pitch or situation they encounter. Do you think hitters put the same swing on a slider low and away that they do on a fastball on the inner half?
  5. Have you ever played or watched golf? There's a minimum of a half dozen swings used in any one round of golf, and I imagine that, much like a varied golf swing, when you practice that alternate swing enough, it becomes a muscle memory thing and not a big deal to pull off. Can we all just finally agree that Kyle doesn't actually understand baseball? I understand that it isn't golf. But you clearly haven't ever tried to hit a baseball in real life.
  6. The contract Hamels has left is less than he'd get on the open market so it's not necessarily a bad value.

  8. no, but it stopped being funny. or never really was.
  9. i can't believe the ptr meme hasn't run its course by now.
  10. I suggest just staring at his .903 MLB OPS until that feeling goes away. it's more fun to wonder what could have been on one website's end of season list though.
  11. Fixed http://i.imgur.com/EucIfYY.gif
  12. The drawing says "conceptual illustration only" right on it.
  13. You lost me here. Simple, if the Cubs lose a playoff series, they'll typically only win 0, 1, 2 or 3 games in that series.
  14. At likely FA prices the #46 pick is probably worth upwards of 5 million. Not enough to be a primary consideration, but more than 'basically be ignored' or 'who gives an expletive'. Ewww, this is going to be one of those stupid Fangraphs things where 20 crappy players are worth the same as one Mike Trout, isn't it? Have to agree with Kyle here. I can already see the convoluted justifications and tables and graphs and WAR calculations and everything.
  15. Some reason? i had diarrhea last week and hated it for some reason.
  16. I wouldn't call a 3.59 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in the pcl "underwhelming."
  17. Not giving up on him quite yet. I'm still hoping he solves his vision problem because it would make for an interesting lineup in 2015. Surely you would accept an above average fielding 3rd baseman, 25 HR and .270-280 hitter. You put Bryant in left and that's pretty sweet. Of course we'd all accept that. But we're talking about Mike Olt here.
  18. give it up tim, i don't think anyone wants to read press releases.
  19. clearly you haven't visited desipio then. Hot sprot taeks fo' dat ass. That dude is to Cubs blogs as Neifi is to the best SS of all time. And he evidently hates Yellon. It's like Glass Joe fighting himself. i see nothing wrong with that.
  20. It'd be more fun for Chapman to throw one near his head and have Javy tackle him Farnsworth-style. Isn't Chapman a boxer too?
  21. I was talking to a woman on a dating site who was on the low end of my 1/2age+7 rule and she wasn't even born when Seinfeld season 2 was running. That's when I noped out of dating sites. that's a weird decision to make it's kyle irl, what do you expect?
  22. Like Eli Whiteside has the credibility to check anyone about anything.
  23. Learning Japanese. i really think so.
